Road Trip! Mike took Friday off for Spring Break and we hit the road for Fredericksburg. We spent the afternoon exploring all the quaint little shops, sampling all the goodies for sale, and deciding on ice cream and pastries for lunch. Yum! We toured the botanical gardens and the WW11 memorial. Then, we let the kids play at the Market Square park in the center of town where there is a water wheel built by Mormon pioneers and several monuments remembering our pioneer heritage.
It was so nice to take a day to be together having fun with our family and not running to sports or dance like most weekends. We ended the day meeting up with the MBJ's (Manwarings, Barlows and Jensons) for dinner at Longhorn, one of our all time favorite greasy good hamburger joints where the kids can play outside and we can sit and talk. It was a good day.

We had to make a stop at this amazing candy
shop with every candy imaginable, including
chocolate covered pickles, jalapenos, and ants!
After careful deliberation, we decided on fresh
saltwater taffy and 6 different flavors of homemade
fudge.

On the way home, we drove through Comfort and came across
this billboard. Only in the south! (well . . . and maybe in Utah. : )
